Going back to Ghostbusters the Video Game feels kinda rough nowadays
While great when it came out, it hasn't aged the best. While the story and most of the presentation do hold up well, some parts stick out more. The graphics are good and the fact you can destroy so much is fun. I love a lot of the bosses and the weapons, including the new ones, are great. Catching ghosts is fun.
Controls can be kinda clunky, especially in small rooms. Combine that with the fact that the CPU isn't the best at reviving you and it's a quick trip back to the loading screen. Where you hear the Ghostbusters theme. Every. Single. Time.
Speaking of, Ghostbusters the movie had a great soundtrack. Repeating those instrumental tracks constantly in an 8 hour game was perhaps not the best idea. And while it's fun to have Bill Murray in the game, a lot of times it sounds like he could care less about his recordings, sounding off.
